One interesting stimulus-related note is on Gristmill,
where David Roberts cites poll numbers that show support for
infrastructure spending is nearly universal, among conservatives and
liberals alike. Roberts wonders why, then, so much ground has been
given up to tax cuts in the recovery package:

This
demonstrates yet another reason why Obama's attempt to appease
conservatives by bumping transit infrastructure investments to make
room for tax cuts is pointless. The people want infrastructure, they
want stimulus, and those two happen to be the same thing, so who gives
a f*ck what Republicans want?

There's more outrage out there as well, not all of it stimulus-related. Tucson Bike Lawyer
writes about a shocking case of flagrant red-light running that
resulted in a fatal crash — and was "not considered reckless behavior"
by the Maricopa County Attorney's Office. And Switchback derides the "sterile and uninviting" design that's shaping up on the Boston waterfront.

Enough already Obama! You’ve made the effort to cross the isle, but the Republicans clearly aren’t interested in anything but more tax cuts – a bankrupt philosophy that has been tried for the last 8 years. Lets get on with the job of fixing our country . . . the Republicans are missing the train (literally).

Word On The Street

“The fact we cannot say definitively that ticketing cyclists for not making full and complete stops necessarily decreases injuries or otherwise reduces collisions gets to the very heart of the issue: Sanford's impending crackdown is not data-driven...
And all the while, this crackdown will better enable motorists near and far to continue, without consequences, to commit the five traffic violations that the data clearly shows us are causing the greatest harm to the most road users.
Bias, bias, bias.”
